*Kanye West and Dr. Dre are among the first-time Emmy nominees for this year.
Dre along with 50 Cent, Kendrick Lamar, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, and Eminem earned an Emmy nod in the Outstanding Sound Mixing for a Variety Series or Special category for their performance during this year’s Super Bowl halftime show.
Meanwhile, Netflix’s three-part “Jeen-Yuhs “documentary about Kanye West is nominated in the Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Series category. The hip-hop star serves as an executive producer on the doc. The project unpacks his childhood and upbringing and rise to fame, among other intimate details that Ye wants his fans to know about him.
The doc highlights how Kanye appreciated his late mother for being his guiding light, inspiration, and counselor in his moments of doubt and difficulties. According to the artist, his success is part of God’s plan, and Ye believes that God placed him in his current position for a reason.
According to Page Six, the rapper’s Mascotte Holdings has filed to trademark “YZYSPLY” for “retail stores [and] retail store services” in addition to “on-line ordering services and on-line retail store services.”
Per the report, “YZYSPLY would offer a broad range of clothing and footwear — everything from ski apparel to G-strings.”
“I can see the wood in my head, this beat-up wood. I can feel the energy of the space,” he told the magazine.
“I’ve already embraced the moment of when I finally get to have my own store, which was always a dream of mine. So even though we do really amazing sales online, my dream is just to have my own store. And to have multiples of it.”
You can catch Dre and Ye (if they show up) at the 2022 Emmy Awards on September 12 on ABC. See below for a list of nominees in the top categories.
